Voters line up in the rain to cast ballot on whether to re-elect incumbent president, Alpha Condé

Voters in Guinea, the West African nation still recovering from the worst Ebola epidemic ever recorded, lined up in the rain on Sunday to elect a president for only the second time in their country’s history.

Antiriot police flanked voting stations, while hospitals treated scores of people injured when police broke up anti-incumbent protests in recent days. Jingles on the radio prayed for a peaceful vote.
